    Clean up some of the spammers?

     
    Think its possible to remove some of the spammers that have registered here but not activated?

    Some of those guys registered way back in '04 and have very nasty links in the www field.

    It appears a few spammers once upon a time apparently tried to feed off our page rank by listing profile links to some rather sick sites. The accounts have zero posts.

    I have set a one post limit on the member list, meaning those zero post counts with spam links have essentially disappeared from public view.

    Scott can probably setup a script to scrub those links. I will forward him a message.
